go-libp2p-secio
A secure transport module for go-libp2p
go-libp2p-secio is a component of the libp2p project, a
modular networking stack for developing peer-to-peer applications. It provides a
secure transport channel for go-libp2p. Following an initial
plaintext handshake, all data exchanged between peers using go-libp2p-secio is
encrypted and protected from eavesdropping.
libp2p supports multiple transport protocols, many of which
lack native channel security. go-libp2p-secio is designed to work with
go-libp2p's "transport upgrader", which applies security
modules (like go-libp2p-secio) to an insecure channel. go-libp2p-secio
implements the SecureTransport interface, which
allows the upgrader to secure any underlying connection.
More detail on the handshake protocol and wire format used is available in the SECIO spec.
Install
Most people building applications with libp2p will have no need to install
go-libp2p-secio directly. It is included as a dependency of the main
go-libp2p "entry point" module and is enabled by default.
For users who do not depend on go-libp2p and are managing their libp2p module
dependencies in a more manual fashion, go-libp2p-secio is a standard Go module
which can be installed with:
go get github.com/libp2p/go-libp2p-secio
This repo is gomod-compatible, and users of
go 1.11 and later with modules enabled will automatically pull the latest tagged release
by referencing this package. Upgrades to future releases can be managed using go get,
or by editing your go.mod file as described by the gomod documentation.
Usage
go-libp2p-secio is enabled by default when constructing a new libp2p
Host, and it will be used to secure connections if both peers
support it and agree to use it when establishing the connection.
You can disable SECIO by using the Security option
when constructing a libp2p Host and passing in a different SecureTransport
implementation, for example,
go-libp2p-tls.
Transport security can be disabled for development and testing by passing the
NoSecurity global Option.
